Amy Pakett, daughter of Howard and Ilene Pakett of Woodcliff Lake, N.J., and Emily Bornstein, daughter of Barry and Lisa Bornstein of St. Louis, have announced their engagement.

 Emily is the granddaughter of Nancy Bornstein and the late Bernie Bornstein of Ladue, and Sara and Earl Levy of Lexington, Ky.

 The couple met in 2014 at the offices of the Jewish Federation of St. Louis. Both still work for the organization; Amy as part of the marketing department and Emily as part of the planning & allocations department.

 Amy and Emily had their first date at 1111 Mississippi, so on 11/11, Emily planned a surprise proposal in Lafayette Park. Amy followed with her own proposal later the same day.

 A 2018 wedding is planned.
